00:00they'll turn back to j.j mccarthy this week and you know washington isn't good either they're

00:05just having one of these anonymous seasons where they're going to win five six games i bet

00:09washington next year by the way will be back and be much better 42 and a half is the total here

00:15i mean can can mccarthy can't play worse than he did two weeks ago and i would guess he can't play

00:22worse than brosmer did this past week but i i think both teams are horrendous here and i know

00:30that washington showed a little bit last week and i'm guessing that's why the line is only one and a

00:33half here but i can't back the vikings after what i'm seeing what a disaster offensively they are

00:39i i made the number one in favor of washington and then when i crunch some numbers i come out with

00:46minnesota by a half point i mean it's right there it's a toss-up it's hard to make either team

00:52a favorite in this game you're right they're both bad uh and you're also right you know you kind of

00:58expected uh some regression for washington after completely exceeding expectations last year and

01:05and now you know expectations are low and they probably should improve uh again next year there's

01:10a lot of talent there i think the coaching is good the coaching is great with minnesota but i don't

01:15think j.j mccarthy is a good quarterback i'm not sure if he ever will be now brosmer that's a whole

01:20different story i'll tell you one angle though i like in this game and i may be betting minnesota

01:26they're very good at home they do have a very solid home field advantage do the vikings and dan quinn

01:32the coach of the commanders is excellent in division and next week they have a division game i think it's

01:39the giants if i recall the week prior to a division game he's awful so he puts so much focus you know

01:48theorizing here he puts so much focus on division games where he really does well that sometimes it

01:54supersedes what he's doing the week before it's just what the track record shows right he's poor the week

01:59before a division game in that division game and i feel like minnesota should be able to get it done

02:06here because i was on washington last week coming out of a bye week after having lost six in a row

02:12taking on a team that went into their bye week having won eight in a row in the broncos i felt

02:19that was kind of the super bowl for washington on national tv they had to show up in that spot

02:24they did they nearly won the game now i think it's back to reality and this team is not very good

02:30they're decimated by injury yada yada yada i'll probably take the vikings here haven't made a bet yet

02:36but i just might
